I have been laughing at this for a solid five minutes.

I like how the AI question prompt on Stack Overflow has an id of "hide-this-if-you-want", meaning the developers knew people would want to get rid of it.

*sighs deeply*

“don’t give them what they want” they are manufacturing their justifications post-hoc. they are already doing what they want. you are not responsible for the actions of your oppressor. you are only responsible for keeping your neighbors safe and that will always be seen as defiance

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

If you're looking to remove AI features from your web browser, there's a script that disables them via group policies. Note: Running requires admin rights. It seemed safe when I checked the source code and ran it myself, but user beware. justthebrowser.com

You ever get stunlocked after reading a sentence?

I was full expecting that bill to pass with the riders. An unexpected victory.

It’s nice seeing how quickly Mamdani has been working to tackle the cost of living crisis. gothamist.com/news/mamdani...

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

Damnit YouTube, at least when annotations got removed there was some advance notice. piunikaweb.com/2026/01/18/y...

It takes so long to edit out savestates for videos on Kaizo levels.

Listening to Jamie Page’s Machine Love feels different now that GenAI has gotten so much more prevalent in the last year.

When you jump through the phone lines and Lynne is dead AGAIN... #GhostTrick

Had a crazy round of Kirby Air Riders.

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers.

I have gotten very into Kirby Air Riders

Hello Tim Cook I worked at Tumblr when you gave us 48 hours to get rid of all the consenting, adult boobs. Up all night at your whim, out of the blue. But you're still cool with Twitter and its CSAM and revenge porn and whatever the fuck this is? Why do you even HAVE guidelines?

Started rewatching Red vs Blue to relieve some stress. Got way more into it than I was expecting. Blew through Seasons 1-5 within 4 days.

One of the things about this is the slippage when talking about AI. Framing at first: Grok apologized, Grok made image. Framing now: People make the images. Consistency is that it's whatever is necessary for media and political classes to justify staying on the child porn app.

Bluesky community! This is my official NYC mayor account. I’ll be posting updates on what’s happening at City Hall and how we’re delivering for New Yorkers. It’s great to be here.

Bojack Horseman’s finale sticks with me.

The extent to which Games Done Quick has helped to steer the larger speedrunning community - one of the most hardcore video game enthusiast subcultures there is - into becoming something so welcoming, inclusive and supportive astonishes me

Listening to Moonsetter as my coding music for today. youtu.be/fng0mQLRVas?...

The Homestuck re-release is up to Collide already? Crazy to think how many new readers have been experiencing 7 years of Homestuck over the past 4 months.

Deltarune if Tony Fox knew what he was doing

Love how this came out!

Leave it to The Verge to do accurate coverage on this topic.

Like if we’re at a point where the executive can unilaterally and illegally put boots on the ground in a country we’re ostensibly not at war with to kidnap and depose their leader under false pretense and lay claim to their resources and no one in the world cares… where *is* the line, exactly?

I guess what’s really despairing is that this feels like a litmus test of every part of the system, and every part of the system is failing. The media, the democrats, the army, international allies… pretty much everyone is willing to shrug their shoulders here. It will only embolden them.

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

Every time I think there’s nothing left that can shock me about my country’s leadership, I’m proven wrong.

I wrote about Grok's CSAM problem and how journalists keep fumbling the story www.readtpa.com/p/grok-cant-...

My Dress-Up Darling lol

Once again, AI is not a person. It cannot “apologize”. The “apology” from Grok was generated based on someone literally prompting it to apologize. You can make an AI say anything you want it to.

Grok can't apologize. Grok can, when prompted, generate a word sequence that is statistically similar to the colloquial phrases we think of as "apologies," but Grok cannot actually apologize because Grok isn't sentient. But we all have a lot of trouble with this because we assume sentience IS speech

the thing that strikes me about the Grok "apology" thing is that even those of us who are against "AI" as it is marketed to us have trouble not falling into the basic fallacy that they are trying to sell us, i.e. There's A Little Guy In There

A reminder that AI cannot "admit" to something. You cannot use AI statements as "proof" of anything. (Yes, this is in response to a specific post and no I won't link it)

gotta go fem (thanks @stopskeletons.bsky.social)

How is a question about the YouTube API considered to not be "about a specific programming problem"?
